Of course we are different from the Angels...now. Our spirits have been combined with mortal bodies. The Angels are people that have either passed through this life or are waiting to come into mortality. They are where ever God wants them to be at this time until the judgement.

The belief that we have nothing in common with those that dwell with God is a tool of the devil. Meant to discourage us from achieving our full potential.

So angels become people and people become angels. OK there's another doctrinal error but it still isn't as bad as the idea that God used to be a mortal man who was promoted into being eternal. That really doesn't even make sense. Part of that belief is that God has a Father and Mother, A Spirit Mother, who created His spirit. You demote God to being one of many Gods like pagan beliefs and populate the universe with all of these lesser Gods. That's the key heresy, all others are lesser IMHO.

Yes. An Angel is someone that has not received their final reward but is on God's errand.

God used to be a mortal man who was promoted into being eternal.

John 5:
19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.

20 For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel.

Jesus has done nothing that His Father hasn't done. What all did Jesus do again exactly?

You demote God to being one of many Gods...

Telling the truth is not demotion. God is still God. Since you have chosen to limit your knowledge of God, how do you claim to know the entirety of the family structure in heaven? It's like claiming to know everything about a lake because you have a glass of water.

That's the key heresy, all others are lesser IMHO.

The problem is that anything God chooses to reveal to you will be a "heresy" to you. This is the difference between worshiping the Bible vs worshiping God.
